The worldwide need for reliable and high-speed internet services over long distances is experiencing a steady escalation due to the growing user base. In response to this increasing demand, there exists an imperative need for rapid advancements in the technologies used in optical communication systems. The evolutionary regime of fiber optics has yielded broadband connections, making uninterrupted, high-speed internet access feasible over extensive geographical spans. Dispersion adversely affects the system’s transmission capacity, thereby reducing the available bandwidth. Solitons provide an efficient solution for counteracting the attenuation caused by dispersion. The current study aims to determine the efficiency of a 16-channel WDM system, operating at distinct bit rates (10, 20, and 40 Gbps), and using a dispersion compensation fiber (DCF). The system evaluation was performed using the bit error rate (BER) and quality (Q-factor). Based on the observations obtained, it can be inferred that an acceptable BER value is achievable at a transmission distance of 1500 km at higher data rates.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
